More than quarter of British kids say Facebook more important than family | News.com.au - 0 views

  •  
    "More than quarter of British kids say Facebook more important than family" this is actually really sad... some pretty alarming stats, particularly sad, "Kids living in single parent homes with just their mother found Facebook their most important influence, with 62 per cent ranking it their main influence" on the other side of the fence, survey shows "less than a quarter of parents thought technology impacted their children's lives". Maybe they should become their friend on FB...

    "Google sees 'everything'"\nLooks at cloud computing, benefits, and risks to security. Interesting point around search practices with Google "..everybody is constantly asking Google about the things they're working on. In effect, we're putting a tremendous amount of faith in Larry and Sergey and their claim that they don't do evil".

"Creepy" Google ads follow users across the web | DIRECT Online - 0 views

  •  
    More on the new remarketing offer from Google. This is a good effective way to market to consumers, however companies do still need to be mindful of their audience, especially if Google are now on board, and this does get the publicity around being creepy. What is currently an effective way to advertise, could turn sour.

Government eyes auDA regulation? - Communications - News - 0 views

  •  
    This article introduces another 'body' called auDA the Australian domain name administrator. The article discusses a complaint from the president of the Australian Web Site Developers Association after 500 sites he had set up, and $100K later were just switched off by the auDA bases on their assessment of use. Perhaps the auDA needs its own audit and regulation over policy approval!

As a response, CommSec have appointed an independant auditer to assess their e-marketing activity and provide training. I do question a lot of marketing departments... does it take a fine from ACMA before they get up to speed with how to conduct their communications and campaigns?
